Rep. Andre Carson (D-IN) is one of two Muslims serving in Congress, and he also sits on the House Intelligence Committee.

Carson says the statements from Cruz and other similar statements from Donald Trump are only making things worse.

“I think for him to say that shows the kind of hate filled rhetoric that we just talked about,” said Carson. “It’s ridiculous when you talk about Muslim neighborhoods that would be Geist, Fishers, central Indiana, Clinton County.. because Muslims are everywhere.”
